Reborn in the 60s and adopted

In the family quarters of the provincial military region, Grandpa Zhou, dressed in military uniform, stood outside the door, looking forward to the arrival, his face full of anticipation and excitement. He kept looking into the distance, as if waiting for someone important to arrive.

At this time, Aunt Fang came out of the house and saw Grandpa Zhou standing at the door. She hurried forward and said, "Old Chief, can't you wait inside? Although it is April now, the weather is still a little chilly.

Shanshan said they won't be here until noon, and it's still early. What if you catch a cold and get sick waiting outside like this? Shanshan will definitely feel bad when she comes."

Grandpa Zhou smiled and said, "Aunt Fang, I understand. But I just want to see my granddaughter as soon as possible! She grew up in the countryside, and I have never seen her.

This time she can finally come to the province, I am really happy. And Lin Xiao's wife, I haven't seen her either, I haven't found her. I have also been promoted this time, and I will be a great-grandfather soon. "As he said this, tears flashed in his eyes.

After hearing this, Aunt Fang nodded with emotion and consoled him, "Old Chief, I am so happy for you."

Grandpa Zhou wiped away the tears from his eyes and asked with a smile, "Aunt Fang, how is the meal preparation going?"

Aunt Fang quickly replied, "Old Chief, don't worry. The main dishes have been prepared long ago, and the stir-fry can be put into the pot as soon as the people arrive. I guarantee that everyone will enjoy the meal."

Grandpa Zhou nodded with satisfaction: "Well, Aunt Fang, you are really thoughtful. Last time I asked you to prepare the betrothal gifts, are you ready?"

Aunt Fang smiled and said, "They are all in the storeroom. Television, watches, sewing machines, radios, everything."

Grandpa Zhou smiled with satisfaction: "Well, you did a good job. Then I'll go into the house and wait."

Aunt Fang happily helped Grandpa Zhou into the house. Not long after they sat down, they heard a knock on the door.

Aunt Fang went to open the door.

"dad"

Grandpa Zhou, who had just been sitting on the sofa, shook his head, thinking he was hallucinating. He heard the voice of his little daughter, whom he hadn't seen for several years, and who said she would be home around noon.

When Zhou Shanshan saw that Grandpa Zhou shook his head and did not agree to her, she walked over to Grandpa Zhou and took his hand.

"Dad, why are you ignoring me?"

Grandpa Zhou was held by someone and then he realized that his little daughter had finally returned. A look of surprise flashed across his face: "Shanshan, you're back!"

Zhou Shanshan said: "Dad, I'm back. Besides me, Xiaoxiao, Meimei, and Xiao Ningmeng are here too!"

Grandpa Zhou immediately withdrew his gaze from Zhou Shanshan and looked towards the door.

Standing next to Lin Xiao was a girl who was as tall as his shoulders. She had a bright and elegant appearance, slender limbs, and only a slightly bulging belly.

Tang Mei saw a spirited white-haired old man next to Zhou Shanshan. He was wearing a neat military uniform and was very tall. He was looking at her with surprise and loving eyes.

She took a deep breath, suppressed the tension in her heart, and smiled: "Hello, Grandpa Zhou!"

Grandpa Zhou looked at the well-behaved and pretty girl in front of him and nodded with satisfaction: "Okay, this is Xiaomei, right? She's so pretty."

As he spoke, he turned his gaze to Lin Meng, his eyes full of satisfaction: "Little Lemon has grown so big."

Lin Meng immediately smiled sweetly and said, "Grandpa, hello."

Grandpa Zhou's face was full of smiles: "Okay, okay, Little Lemon, and Meimei, right? Come and sit down. You naughty boy, help my granddaughter-in-law over here. Don't make her tired."

After saying that, he looked with burning eyes at the little girl who was almost ten years old and looked very much like his daughter.

"Little lemon, come to grandpa quickly"

Little Lemon was not shy and called out "Grandpa" sweetly, then sat next to him.

Grandpa Zhou patted Little Lemon's hand lovingly and said, "You and your sister-in-law can eat the fruit on the table together. This is specially prepared for the two of you."

Little Lemon picked up the peach on the table and wanted to pass it to Tang Mei, but Tang Mei shook her head slightly. When she saw her shaking her head, she knew her sister didn't want to eat it, so she started to eat it bite by bite without any hesitation.

Grandpa Zhou looked at Little Lemon lovingly as she ate a peach. He saw Lin Xiao and Tang Mei still standing out of the corner of his eye, so he looked at them and said, "Lin Xiao, hold on to your granddaughter-in-law, come and sit down."

Lin Xiao said, "Hey." and helped Tang Mei sit on the sofa.

Aunt Fang in the kitchen heard the noise outside and came out of the kitchen happily. At a glance, she saw Zhou Shanshan, who had not changed much from before.

"Shanshan, you're back."

Zhou Shanshan smiled and greeted Aunt Fang, who had taken care of her father for decades: "Aunt Fang, you have worked hard."

Aunt Fang smiled and shook her head: "It's not hard, I'm happy when you come back, it's just a meal, as long as you like it, I'm the happiest, oh, is that your daughter-in-law and little daughter?"

Aunt Fang looked at Tang Mei and Xiao Ningmeng and nodded frequently.

Zhou Shanshan introduced: "Her name is Tang Mei, she is a capable and lovely girl. Not only does my Xiaoxiao like her, I also like her very much. The other little girl is my child, her name is Lin Meng"

Aunt Fang's face was as big as a chrysanthemum with a smile: "I have heard the names of these two children for many years, and finally I can see them in person."

Tang Mei also heard the two talking about her. She held her belly and stood up, calling out sweetly to Aunt Fang, "Hello, Aunt Fang."

Lin Meng also shouted.

Aunt Fang: "Oh, you two little girls, you are so sweet. Meimei, please sit down. Xiao Ningmeng, you and your sister-in-law should also be polite to me. I have made chicken soup. You two should drink more later."

Tang Mei responded with a smile.

Little Lemon also smiled sweetly, and her attention was drawn to the fruits on the table.

Lin Yunshen and Lin Yunkun went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy things. They came in carrying large and small bags. When they saw Grandpa Zhou drinking tea on the sofa, they hurriedly brought Lin Yunkun over to say hello.

Lin Yunshen: "Dad!"

Lin Yunkun: "Uncle Zhou!"

When Grandpa Zhou saw the old man coming, he also responded with a smile: "Hey, both of you come and sit down. Why are you being so polite when you are back home?"

Lin Yunshen said: "I haven't been able to visit you for many years. Are you in good health?"

Grandpa Zhou put down his teacup and said, "It's fine. You two boys, take my tea set to the study. I'll talk to my grandson's wife for a while, then come up. The three of us are chatting."

Lin Yunshen nodded, went forward to pack up Grandpa Zhou’s tea set, and took Lin Yunkun to the study.

Lin Yunshen and Lin Yunkun answered together: "Okay."

After Grandpa Zhou watched the two people carry away the tea set on the table, he turned his head slightly and winked at Aunt Fang. Aunt Fang nodded in understanding, turned around and walked into the inner room, and moved out the things she had prepared before.

"My granddaughter-in-law, these things were prepared by me a few months ago when Xiaoxiao told me that you were getting married. Shanshan prepared these for Shanshan. These are all from grandpa. I wish you and Xiaoxiao a happy wedding in advance."

Tang Mei looked at the things in front of her in surprise and found that they were the four major items in a traditional wedding - a TV, a watch, a sewing machine, and a radio, and they were all brand new. She looked at Lin Xiao in surprise, and Lin Xiao smiled and nodded at her.

"Thank you, Grandpa. I'll accept it." Tang Mei said happily.

Grandpa Zhou nodded with satisfaction, then pointed to a black box and said, "I like your character of not refusing. Come, open this box and take a look."

Zhou Shanshan's heart tightened when she heard her father's words. She was even more surprised when she saw the black box.

Because the box contained some of her mother's favorite jewelry when she was alive, the intricate carvings on those jewelry were exquisite and beautiful.

She and her sister hadn't seen these jewels since their mother passed away. They never expected to see them again decades later.

Tang Mei knew that the box must be very valuable just by looking at its appearance. When she gently opened the box, she found two bracelets of very nice water color inside. According to the future market price, they might be worth tens of millions.
